A video circulating online shows Officer Abukari Fusheini, popularly known as Akuma Pampa and a native of Yendi, helping a stranded driver in urgent need of fuel.
Shared on Facebook by Crime Check TV GH, the footage quickly captured widespread attention across social media.
On duty at the time, Officer Abukari Fusheini requested the driver’s number and sent an unverified amount via mobile money to buy fuel.
Clearly amazed, the driver asked;
“Officer, why did you choose to help me?”
The officer calmly replied.
“You mentioned you were short of fuel, so I had to support you.”
Overwhelmed, the driver repeatedly said;
“God bless you.”
Kind police officer rewarded with cash bundle
Moments later, the driver explained that it was a prank meant to test people on the road. He then reached into his car and handed something over to the officer, who soon realised it was a bundle of cash.
The officer was too shaken to speak and could only smile, clearly not expecting such a dramatic turn that day.
He eventually expressed his appreciation, saying thank you. Just before driving off, the man added;
“You made me feel like I had a helper. God bless you.”
Crime Check TV Ghana praised the officer, stressing that not all law enforcement officials act for personal gain.
“There are still professional police officers. Watch how a police officer sent money to a driver who needed fuel. Let’s give our officers the respect they deserve,” the post read.
